RIGHT AUD WRONG Collector of the Port Loeb Declares that Women Don't Mean to Smuggle. PSYCHOLOGICAL QUESTION "ARE WOMEN CONQENITALLY DISHONEST ORJUST VERY AB- . SENT'MINDED?" 8CIENTI S T 8 MAY BE ASKED TO DETERMINE. Nw York, July 7. The frequent dis closure or late oi attempts on ma part of well-to-do women traveler! to evade payment of customs duties on reaching this port, have raised an In terefttlng psychological question, which Just now is engaging the serious attention of Collector Loeb. Bluntly the question Is this: "Are women con genltally dishonest or just absent minded?" In a great many of the cases that have been forced upon bis official at tentlon the collector In all probability would be Inclined, to Impute the fall lire to declare as dutiable good3 pur t imed abroad to a spirit of forgetful nest or lack of information on the subject rather than a wilful design to creat Uncle Sam out of his tithe, "While this may have been the real reason for the oversight of some of the offenders against the customs regu lations recently brought to bay, It Is the general conviction that a majority of the women who have run afoul of tho law within the last three or four month3 had full knowledge of what they were doing and of the penalty that attached thereto If detected. It Is doubtful, however, If they had an adequate conception of Its seriousness In past years there has been great deal of latltudo given to women travelers, of which quite a few undoubtedly took advantage to smuggle Into the country Jewels, tnd such ffmnll things as could readily ha concealed about their persons. Such esplonaj" as was maintained over , them by customs Inspectors was of a more or less perfunctory character, the general disposition of officials being to enforce rather the spirit than the exact letter of the law. That Uncle Sam has been a heavy lorer by this Indulgence is apparent from tho frequently emphasized evidence of moral remissness on the part of female passengers revealed since Collector Loeb, Instituted his rigorous Investigation of the chattels and persons of all homeward bound pilgrims. Accustomed as they have been ; to the leniency of former admlnlstraitk.. ik. .Al.ill f ftttA avimlnnttnnl , to which they are now subjected, with Its usual , attendant exposure. Is unletting the traditional composure of some of the country's most dlgnlf ed matrons these days. They resent ,the attitude of the government and affect an air of Injured Innocence, which however, wins them little sympathy. Within the last three months we have witnessed the unusual spectacle of women such as Mrs. Henry Clay Frlek. wife of the multi millionaire roe and steel manufacturer of Pittsburg, the wife of one former governor end some twenty others Invited to visIt the law division of the custom house to explain omlsotons In their declara tions. This week Mrs. V. B. Saund era and her niece. Miss Katherlne Liv Ingstone Bmigh, both prominent mom bert of the Daughters of the Revolu tion, had a similar experience. Each claimed that she was not familiar with the regulations and disclaimed any Idea of of smuggling. They brought In with them some trinkets wpon which the duty was $:00. When they were Informed that their neglect to declare them would cost them a penalty of $000 in addition to the duty they protested violently. But it avail ed them nothing, as Collector Loeb la determined to discourage the practice of 'forgetting to make a declaration by Inflicting the full penalties prescribed by law whenever he has the opportunity. In this way he hopes to impress on Curoo Rhoumatism NMf Discover That la Guaranteed D-M-F" is the new discovery for the positive cure of rheumatism, gout, lumbago and neuralgia.

"QUAKER CLUB" MEEK, BUT IN NAME ONLY It might have been a set of books on theology, or a bundle of missionary tracts all done up so neat and quiet, but it wasn't, proving that one may enclose real treasures in leaden caskets, even as Shakespeare did. On the top was stamped just as plain as anything: "QUAKER CLUB, DECATUR, INDIANA." All of which served to bear out the hypothesis until an expressman at the Pennsylvania station, in tossing the package into a G. R. & I. car dropped it, and Not a word against the "Quaker Club" of Decatur. No doubt that astute organization travels ways devious and inscrutable, but something In that package gave way with a tinkling of breaking glass. It was Green River Four-X to the dogs, for a couple of Richmond's dry canines sauntered up and kept the stuff from going to waste.

Fine for Parisian Sage, You Want the Best. if Almost everybody In Richmond knows that there Is no preparation for the hair that can compare with Paris ian Sage. It cures dandruff, stops falling hair and Itching scalp In two weeks, or money back. It puts radiance and lustre into that dull, lifeless hair that many women possess, and does It In a few , days. It malce3 hair grow; prevents hair from turning gray and Is without doubt the most refreshing and Invigorating hair tonic In the world. It Is daintily perfumed and Is not In the least sticky or greasy. In summer people of refinement use It regularly, because It keeps thj scalp cool and free from odor of perspiration. On March 25, 101O, Lulu D. Fix, of Raphlne, Va., wrote: "Parisian Sage is a wonderful hair restorer; it stopped my hair from falling out and stopped my scalp from itching; also cured the dandruff. I only used one bottle, but I like it so much I am going to use more." Parisian Sage is sold by druggists everywhere and by L. H. Flhe for uO cents a large bottle.

DEPENDS UPON THIS MONTH St. Paul, Minn., July 7. Official re ports from the grain producing sections of the northwest do not indl cate that the entire wheat crop has ported. In isolated districts some of which are of considerable size, the crop has already suffered such dam age as to reduce the probable yield to K per cent of last years crop. Over the northwest generally there is ad mitted damage, but the careful inspec tion trips of two railway general man agers and a score of wheat experts during the past ten days indicates that to predict a half crop is to credit all the damage reports which have come in. The experts are inclined to believe that while farmers in some sections have suffered a total loss the total wheat production of the north west this year will show a fair crop, while many large sections will show a fair to good crop. A large crop is not expected because of the heat of the last three weeks. Reports have come in from a few districts showing that wheat less than a foot high is heading out Weather conditions have improved and a cooler July in the opinion of experts who have just come in from the wheat districts will make immense progress towards reducing the damage. Continued hot weather will on the other hand largely increase the loss. Rain has fallen In many sections and over the entire northwest there has been a noticeable improvement.

Low Attendance Vexes English Church

Ministers of British Isles Protest Worship, Declaring Not One BY HERBERT TEMPLE. London, July 7. The decline in the custom of Sunday worship in England has now become so pronounced that it Is a source of great worry to the ministers of the Church of England, who declare that statistics show that only one of 25 adults goes to church now. To get the real opinion of churchmen on this subject I have Just had a talk with two prominent ministers. the Rev. Dimsdale Young and the Bishop of Lewes. The former said that he wished and hoped, that he had misread the times, and he honestly believed that one of the saddest things to be found today was the decline of the worship of God In our churches. People often said that they worshiped God in the fields, In the garden and 1a the open country. That certainly could oe done, but the question to ask the people who asserted this was, "Did they do it?" People also remarked that Sunday was a day of rest, but what did the rest consist cf? They saw streets filled with bicycles and motor-cars and people rushing hither and thither in the pursuit of pleasure. This was not the truo rest of the Sabbath of God. He wondered if those who neglected fie place of God ever thought what the word "worship" really meant. It meant "worth-ship" giving unto God His worth-ship, the worth to which he was entitled. So that those who refrained from the worship of God were failing to acknowledge the "worth-ship" of the great Creator. Those who neglected the worship of God on the Sabbath were Sabbath breakers, because it was the day for worship. The Bishop of Lowes took a more optimistic view of the question and s.-.ld: "The Church of England today, I believe, is renewing its youth. The future is full of hopefulness, and I think we members of the church have cause for thankfulness, that we live in the beginning of the twentieth century. Was there ever a time when there was such vigour and fcuch rower in the parishes of our land? It is my work now to go about from place to place, from little village to little village, hidden in the, recesses of the Sussex Downs, places which have not seen the face of a Bishop for 100 years or more, and I say without hesitation that the admirable way in which the churches are kept, the enthusiasm of the people, the borad fellowship which prevails amongst them, the unity amongst church workers, to confirmation, rejoices the heart of the lover of his church and country. There has been a marked improvement during the past thirty or forty years. The historic Church of St Nicholas. Doptford, has been condemned as un safe, and an effort is to be made to raise $25,000 to carry out the needful repairs, and appeal which has met vlth the support of the Bishop of Southwark. The rectory dates back to 1180, the present structure having been built in 1697. The tower was restored some years ago, but in order to render the building Bafe it will be necessary to rebuild the walls some five feet down as well as to strengthen the gables. Sir Francis Drake was a worshipper at St. Nicholas, and in 1531 Queen Elizabeth visited his ship, the Golden Hind, then lying in the Deptford dockyard. It was under the, shadow of St. Nicholas church that the young Elizabethan poet, Christopher Marlowe, was laid after that fatal quarrel in a Deptford tavern, when he met hi death at the hands of "a bawdy serving man," and the church registers record the burial in June 1593, but his grave is unknown. Marlowe is one of the most unhappy and most fascinating figures In English literature, and

notwithstanding his reputation for atheism a reputtlon exceedingly ill founded he wrote the last of our religious plays. The parish register of St Nicholas b:gin in 1655 and contain many references to the repair of the whipping post and under date 1727 it is recorded that there was "paid -for whipping Susan Hawley at the workhouse. Is." It is also chronicled- that in 1726 the church wardens "paid for sweet-meats for the Bishop when he preached the charity sermon, and for beer. 4s. 6d." On Sunday last I visited "Kosmon Church," the temple of a new strange religious community which is rapidly making converts in London. I was received by an elder. who told me that the religion is thousands of years old. and came originally from the ancient Egyptians. The sect claims to be al lied to the essences of the Bible. The deity worshipped is the "Light Bringer," the "Great Spirit" who Is the culminating point of the ever narrowing arcs of light formed by the angles hence the term arch angels' he quaintly added. The room in which the services are held is decorated in a scheme of rest ful green. At one end stands an al tar near which the elders sit The altar has upon Its front an eye from which eminate representations of rays of light. This symbol like many others in the room, is suggestive of xthe signs in use amongst Freemasons. At various points on the walls are large gilt emblems composed of the letter "F" within an equilateral triangle surrounded by a circle. Seated in the room were some 50 or 60 people, as many as could be comfortably accommodated. The major ity of these were women of middle age. The remainder of the congregation was composed of one or two young girls and a number of elderly men. A short time before the service ended it was announced that angels were present and at the close of the meeting a weird chant bidding them adieu was sung, whilst another chant addressed "Oh, Chief!" bade farewell to the principal. The proceedings were further mystified by a "trance sermon" delivered in broken English by a foreigner, who, though he did not lose consciousness prespired freely and gasped as though ne were undergoing a severe strain. He saw angels all round the room, and broke down whilst describing the charms of a beautiful young female spirit. NOTICE TO BIDDERS.

ON TRAIL OF GYPSY CAMP Wild-eyed, long haired and a verita ble giant in ' strength,' Micheo Steers appeared at police court this morning in quest of his child , which . he said gypsies had stolen. Micheo is a Greek who two months ago arrived in Indi ana from Australia. While at Indian apolis his child was stolen by a band of gypsies who camped near his own wagon. Since then he has searched at Dayton, Columbus and St Louis, but never a trace could he get of the thieves. Steers twitched his long moustache as be told how he had sworn veng eance on the man. who Btole the child His description of the gypsies tallied with that of the tribe , which lately relieved several young farmers near Chester of their cash by a cleverlyworked fortune ' telling swindle. Superintendent Gormon sent Steers in the direction of Williamsburg as the rov ers were last heard of at that place, If Micheo succeeds in finding their camp it is safe to predict that blood will be spilled.
